OOOppoooopsie!

So, just to let you know that the Isis “Holy Tears” CD single has been corrected. As some of you know, a handful of singles were sent out with the wrong tracks on them. This was a limited problem and has been rectified. We've been told it had something to do with too much cough syrup. Anyway, when you buy the “Holy Tears” single now, you actually get “Holy Tears”, neat, huh? If you have one of the mistakes please return it to your point of purchase or keep it as a collectors item rarity.

Tours, Toys, and Crudo

In case you hadn't noticed, or checked the website, the Ipecac team are turning into road warriors these days. Live is where these bands really shine! Check em out. It is important to support live music. This very second we got the lovely Northern State opening up for Tegan and Sara in Europe. In the US and Canada we got Dub Trio continuing to bring it on a nightly basis and they are heading to Europe soon, and Ipecac stalwarts Dälek are working the US in a couple cool package tours. Also take note that Ipecac overlord, Mike Patton is playing a handful of dates in Europe with Zu and a few with Fennesz. Isis will be warming up the machine soon too! Save those coins.

Also wanted to let you know that there is a new Patton project that is about to show it's face. Yeah, another one. Seems that Mike and Dan the Automator have been cooking up some music and after a little marinating are about to reveal........ CRUDO. Not much is known about Crudo, but we know this, they will be playing the super cool music festival, Sasquatch, at the end of May in the state of Washingtonat the Gorge.

Oh and we have just been informed that we have scored the last 250 complete sets of Ipecac toys and will be selling those through this website in the next month or so. Stay tuned.

We're very happy to announce the release of Dub Trio's Ipecac debut "Another Sound Is Dying" on Jan 29th. These guys have been family for awhile. You may have already seen them while they pulled double duty as the backing and opening band with Peeping Tom or on tour with Gogol Bordello, Clutch, Helmet, Bad Brains or Matisyahu among others. Don't miss their upcoming cd release parties in Brooklyn on Jan 31st and Chicago on Feb 27th and as they head out on a worldwide tour in the upcoming months.

They are currently featured on the cover of Alarm magazine who garnered praise that "It will certainly be one of the best albums of 2008...it is the kind of record that makes you reevaluate your entire record collection."

Their music has recently been heard on HBO Sports Hard Knocks and HBO's Winter Promotional ads and will soon be appearing on Fearless TV and MTV's Rob and Big. A recent live performance recorded in Brooklyn at the Luna Lounge is also available as a free videostream on www.woozyfly.com/dubtrio
